FAQs
What type of doors can I use this handle on?
This handle is designed for standard interior doors that utilize a latch mechanism. It is not intended for exterior doors or doors requiring a mortise lock.
Does this handle come as a pair?
Yes, the product includes a pair of handles, one for each side of the door, along with the necessary spindle and fixings.
How do I clean the brass finish?
To clean the brass finish, use a soft, damp cloth. For light cleaning, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by thorough drying. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
What is the backplate size?
